Quite Noon,
There are some misfortunes onwards. Unlikely Henry is ill all on a sudden. Looks like fever, not much effective, but can be.
Henry made herbal of Carica papaya leaves. His mother used to made these things. Henry observated these works in childhood. Did many experiments which cost his mom's sandal's infinite hits.
He is fasting today to maintain his physical health but seems like he have to bow to fever.....
However, Henry managed not to end his fast. Henry took the bread package and sliced in pieces using a knife. He took a butter can as always. This life he mixed the herbal with the loaf. Reserving the meal, He returned to his room.
He came to Marsh and Jeena with their food. They were upset and bored. They literally stopped eating their meal. Henry was really depressed about this.
He is trying to find her but he couldn't.
Henry will need to go in market today. He needs to buy some groceries for his meal later today.
Henry wore normal indigo t-shirt and white light pant. He took a bag made of sack and left his hat in home. He checked his money bag. He wasn't a fool to keep all his money in purse. He just took three pound.
The market was not much far from his home. Just matter of steps.
Entering the market, there are many vegetable stalls standing. The crowd making its quantity more and more.
Henry went to a butcher. Selling beef and mutton. Henry was standing there beside some customers. Waiting to hear the price from someone's mouth.
A customer was bargaining with a butcher. Henry heard the price is 1 pound for one kilogramm. The price have risen in market of goods. He just came here to buy some fruits.
He took a shortcut entering an alley. After reaching the other side, he found many grocery shops. Henry near to the fruit stall.
Asking the Seller price of half kg honeycrisp apples. After hearing price, he tells to give one kg. Using a steelyard before taking some apples in a polythene bag. Looks like one is extra there, seller took a apple out.
Now it's equal....
Henry took the polythene bag in his bag. The shopkeeper wanted to give Henry a basket but he didn't.
He was took half kg blurle berries and water caltrops. He was thinking to buy a big fish for kittens. They are starving for almost two days now...
Henry went to the fish counter. The noise in crowd is just increasing.
Henry took a big tuna in one pound for the kittens. Also made it furnished before putting in bag. Walking in the crowd, Henry was thinking to go and sleep today after feeding them.
Some drops of water crashed on his head from a rooftop. Henry looked up.
.... Looks like today will be rainy day. I haven't bathed today because of fever...
He was going, suddenly, he heard someone calling him. He looked on the left.....
" Huh? Jeff? "
Henry saw Jeff approaching to him with a basket full of groceries.
He looked into Jeff's eyes, he witnessed a scene...
Jeff is about to put some muffins in his mouth in charge.
When Jeff came near, Henry caught his both wrist.
" Woah! So, you knew it? "
Jeff frees his wrist and stepped back.
" Today I am fasting. So, don't do that again.
Anyways, what did you bought? "
" My home is empty. Out of meal, so I came to buy some food. I will go to home and eat a chicken. "
Jeff was technically wearing a black thin jacket on flesh and light trouser.
Both tittle-tattling and walking near the closest riverside road. They were behaving very friendly with each other and sometimes like born enemy.
" Hey, do you know where to find a diamond? " Henry asked.
" In your womb I guess.... "
" Ew! You are like geh. I need to make distance from you or I won't be alive, God bless me! "
Henry drew a cross on his chest.
" Wat? Bro really takes things seriously! Calm down boy. "
" I take things seriously cause you joke seriously. It is not serious but yeah, it's serious because it is SERIOUS!! "
" It's embarrassingly serious. You just keep making everything serious! I am gonna make you my dishwasher! "
" How dare you planning to make me your maid! "
Both stood back from each other. Both puts their basket and bag on the ground.
" Nuts, I will clean your existence! "
Jeff poked.
" Can you even spell existence? I am new but don't think I am arrogant. I know how to make people slip and fall. Also look them away. "
" You are gonna run away from me mouse if I entered my awakened form! "
" I don't run away by fear, fear runs away from me blud! Don't you dare saying that? That's how you behave with new people? "
" Shut up Brother in law! "
Jeff proceeds to land a punch.
" I don't have siblings! "
Henry lowered and tried to give a uppercut.
Jeff Stepped on the slippery grass and slipped behind and his foot rose up, ending up crashing Henry's face.
Henry fell on the ground. Both gets up and cleaned their dress. Both looked at each other in SERIOUS mood.
And then started laughing.
" Hmp, let's go. We need to go on our paths. You must have chores at home. "
" Oh yeah!! I forgot!! Damnit! "
Henry yelled.
" Let's go together.... "
Jeff stood up and raised his hand.
....
Both going onwards with their goods.
Henry notched his ear and asked, " What do you think? How did the ' Panzia ' got devided? "
" That's a difficult question. I don't know, everything that happens is just a result of foolish human acts. You see, one apple fell and people discovered gravity, but billions of body fell, yet none discovered humanity. "
" It's not the betrayal that hurts, it's the fact that you thought you were more worthy to them. Depression is like war, you don't know when your enemy is going to strike. I see some corps clowning Mr Andrew. Didn't he know about this? "
" Hehe, he knows. What I learnt from him is that to fear a guy who stays silent after disrespect. Good time with crazy friends makes good memories..... "
" Huh? You are saying I am crazy? You are making me too SERIOUS now. "
" I like overthinkers, you are one. The more you overthink the more mysteries you seek and discover. "
" I guess so. Okay, let's meet tomorrow, partner? "
" Hehe, I am waiting grizzly! "
Both ended their conversation with a hand pump and got separated in their own ways.
Henry was running with his shopping bag to reach the home very soon.
